There are many advantages, but here are the biggies:

  1. He can set up and fix anything! When Zach and I moved into our home, his first priority was the entertainment system. Several hours later, he had set up our television, DVD player, sound system, Wii game consule, XBOX game consule, and a computer hard drive he uses to store movies, television shows, and music. He also assembled a new piece of furniture for all of it. It is super convenient to know all of my technology will always be functioning because it drives him crazy otherwise.
  2. He saves us money. Before our wedding, Zach told me he wanted to do as many tasks as possible to help me. Isn't he such a good guy? I wasn't sure how to respond to his request, but later he had the idea to design all of our wedding print materials. So he designed and printed our Save the Date announcements, formal invitations, ceremony programs, and favor labels (which were mixed CD's he made). What's more, Zach built an entire wedding website since that's a trendy thing to do. Not only was I blown away by his helpfulness, I was also thankful for the hundreds and hundreds of dollars he saved my family. Being tech saavy eliminates the need to buy overpriced products and services because you can do it yourself.
  3. He has interesting knowledge. Zach is always telling me a random fact; these facts are usually about technology or were discovered because of technology. For example, my husband is the first to know about upcoming concert tours. We are both in love with music and concerts so it is great that he finds out when we will be driving to Indianapolis or Chicago. Other times, Zach will post links on his Twitter and Facebook accounts. I always enjoy reading what he posts because the topics range from universal health care to a hilarious movie trailer.

In short, technology can make being married to a tech junkier easier. Next week, you'll find out why it makes it harder.
